If you make a beeline for products that promise glowing skin, this one's for you. Since going viral on TikTok - it has over 26 million views and counting - one bottle of the stuff now sells every two minutes worldwide. Meet Charlotte Tilbury's Hollywood Flawless Filter Foundation. It supplies sheer coverage, and smoothes and hydrates skin.
According to Charlotte Tilbury's Instagram account last month, even longtime friend of Charlotte's and the face of the brand Kate Moss has been wearing it. Kate stepped into the 2023 Met Gala with a glow-laden 'out out' make-up look. She looked facial-fresh and radiant, and according to Charlotte Tilbury, it's all down to her bottle of Flawless Filter Foundation. On her Instagram, Charlotte broke down Kate's entire make-up look.
Grazia caught up with Sofia Tilbury - niece to beauty boss Charlotte Tilbury - backstage at London Fashion Week last season. The renowned make-up artist used the foundation on models at the David Koma show. The brief was 'glow' and, for Sofia, using Charlotte Tilbury's Hollywood Flawless Filter foundation was a given. 'This product is like the Instagram filter Paris in a bottle,' she said.
And - the best news is - the Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter is currently 20% off in the Black Friday sales. Originally priced at £39, the viral product is now £31 in Space NK's Black Friday sale. Shop it while you still can.

Description
It's an entirely unique product: often imitated but never successfully duped. Charlotte herself says that it is inspired by the flattering nature of old Hollywood lighting. It can be used in three ways: as a make-up primer (use underneath for a subtle sheen), as a glow-laden, barely-there foundation base, or as a highlighter.
Pros
- Recommended by the entirety of Hollywood, including Kate Moss
- A perfect dewy glow, perfect for the clean-girl aesthetic
Cons
- The site currently only has three dark shades (Deep 6.5, 7 and 8)
Needless to say, TikTok is all over it, too.
